AU WORKSHOP
AU WORKSHOP - OCTOBER
Welcome to Recollé's AU Workshop! On this post players new and old are encouraged to help one another make connections for their AU lives and to ask for or offer ideas if they so choose. Please respond to the post with the below form, and/or feel free to comment to anyone else to work things out! Please be aware that posting to this workshop does not guarantee you a reserve, and that multiple players are permitted to workshop the same character. Please find our mod questions comment here.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
World changes
FAQ

• As per our game-wide poll, we will be holding an application round in October and in November! After that, apps will resume their bi-monthly schedule. The game calendar has now been updated with the dates for this.
• Please note: you need a reserve to apply, so please plan accordingly! Reservation dates can also be found on the game calendar and coincide with the TDM.
• For current players who are interested in 2nd or 3rd characters, please review and follow our policy about AC! To reserve a 2nd character you must have a pass for the previous month's AC with your first character. For a 3rd character, you must have a pass for the previous two months' AC for both of your characters. In addition, we do ask that the AC for the current month be met and filled into your AC comment by the time of your reserve. It must be full AC. This means you must have 20 comments between at least 2 and at most 4 threads and one memory regain listed for the current month's AC period. Your reserve will not be accepted until you supply the requested AC!

Royce Bracket | Transistor

[personal profile] decompiler 2017-10-19 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
PLAYER: Xel
CHARACTER: Royce Bracket
CANON: Transistor

AU NAME: Dr. Royce Bracket
AU AGE: 37
AU OCCUPATION: Physicist and former RU professor, having recently moved to the private sector after consistently being passed over for tenure
BLURB:
◇ Believes himself to be a Recolle native, born into an "old money" sort of situation
◇ Fairly unremarkable childhood, though he was a bright kid and entered college young
◇ Has a fascination with dissecting how the world works that occasionally borders on fixation, eventually arriving at his interest in particle physics
◇ Probably has a few published articles out there but has thus far not received the recognition he expects
◇ ...Probably because he has a couple weird and maybe verging-on-fringe ideas that nobody properly appreciates
◇ Still guest lectures from time to time on various math/physics topics
◇ Loves math so much you guys, like seriously he could talk about it forever and finds it genuinely aesthetically pleasing, what a nerd
◇ Really into architecture on a personal interest level
◇ Perception: fit, weirdly fashionable, kind of intense, severe; reality: soft-spoken, genteel, slightly awkward, doesn't swear
◇ Seriously, his voice doesn't match his appearance at all (contains spoilers)
◇ Alternates chain-smoking with periods of attempting to quit
◇ Alternates between a reclusive private life and unexpected attendance of highly visible social functions
◇ Experiments with various drugs to assist productivity
◇ Has experienced a fugue state a couple times in his life
◇ Genuinely likes to talk to people about his interests but tends to talk at them
◇ Quietly very prideful and seething with various resentments
◇ Wants to change the world—or at least to feel like he understands it enough to be able to
◇ Occasionally speaks with a very soft Southern twang? This is inexplicable, as he has never spent any significant length of time in the South
◇ A Leo

LOOKING FOR: Gosh, anything! Royce is a little bit eccentric but is potentially willing to hang out with all kinds of people, especially if they happen to share some core values/ideals. Eventually he'll learn that he and his colleagues kinda goofed their plan to improve their city through a series of murders and inadvertently caused the end of the world. Whoops.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I want to play with castmates more than life itself, I'll take literally anyone and will enable you hard and love and support you forever, jsyk

I NEED TO PLAY WITH YOU AGAIN... somehow... tell me about his fashion choices
decompiler: (◇ in this labyrinth of thought)

[personal profile] decompiler 2017-10-19 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
AHAHAH YES... well... he comes from a cohort of beautiful, stylish people and clearly knows his way around a suit, and what's with that gucci af lab coat, no wonder he uses a pocket protector, you can't go staining something that slick

his aesthetic seems very nostalgic/vintage/classic mixed with some more avant-garde modern touches (mostly because that's transistor's aesthetic lmao)

work him over, rideaux
